This poster has been designed by young people for young people, youth workers, educators and youth leaders to explore the concepts of economic inequality and finanical injustice. We hope that this tool will spark conversations between young people and intergenerationally. It recognises the need to make the conversation of economics accessible to all people. To do this we have created this poster with accessible language and youth voices, as well as visual imagery.
This tool is for people who are interested in exploring the topic of economic inequality and financial injustice.
This tool:
- Invites self-reflection and thought-provoking group dialogue.
- Emphasises critical questioning as a key skill to engage with how the world works.
- Puts a focus on how we personally engage with the wider world.
- Encourages us to look up and look out.
- Spotlights reducing inequality (SDG 11), climate action (SDG 13), peacebuilding and justice making (SDG 16).
- Prompts discussion around systemic issues that requires collective action and institutional change to address them, recognising the unique times we are living in.
This poster was created as part of the work of the NYCI Youth2030 Young People’s Committee (YPC).
This project was completed with support from the Youth2030 Global Youth Work Team at the National Youth Council of Ireland supported by Irish Aid, in partnership with Financial Justice Ireland (as part of their DEAR-funded project, ‘Connecting the Dots’) and artist Paola Rozo from Kiluteo.
